The most productive 7 hrs in 28 years of selling

I wasn't aware that Mike Weinberg had ever been in our office but it really did make me chuckle as I recognised so many aspects of this book in my business. Not only filling in the gabs of our weakness but confirm the areas we are already strong. I have just ordered the hard copy to share with my sales team. I especially like the reference to payphones and life before the internet.
Excellent book , well written and presented a value to a dedicated sales team thanks

Stick with it, it does get better

initial first 19 or so chapters could have been consolidated in to one chapter and did seem to go on like a broken whiney record. however, part two of the book is where the fun begins and gives a good overview of the basics that you should follow managing a sales team. Plenty learnt that will be put in to practice.

Cut to the Chase

Great, no nonsense approach and appraisal of almost every sales environment and applicable to almost every industry. For most current and practicing Sales Managers a great tool to help refocus. Fantastic learnings for the newly appointed....and for this of us who have been around the block a few times, rejuvenating (and an amusing reflection on my career to date) I defy anyone not to recognise some or all the faux pas referred to in this book. Fantastic!

A great book to keep the saw sharp

Although you could say there wasn't anything revolutionary in this book, Mike is full of common sense and he's reminding us of Sales 101. I have listened to this book a number of times and still enjoy it
